Tonia Couch

Tonia Couch is a former British Olympic diver that competed in both the 10m Platform and Synchro. She broke through as an international contender on her Olympic debut in 2008, finishing eighth in the 10m Platform, repeating her success in the 2009 World Championships and the 2010 Commonwealth Games. That event also saw the formation of the triumphant pairing that is Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow: the pair finished fourth in the Synchro in Delhi.

In 2012 the duo shone with a European Gold and World Series Bronze and finished 5th in front of a home crowd at the London Olympics. Tonia won the National title in the 10m Platform in 2013 and continued her success with Sarah Barrow in the Synchro with European and World Series Silver medals. 2014 built on the pair’s success again with Silver in the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, and Tonia showed her individual class by winning another European Gold. 2015 was a banner year, seeing Tonia collect four Bronze medals for her individual performances on top of becoming overall series Champion for the year.

In 2016, alongside new partner Lois Toulson, Tonia picked up 3 World Series Medals in Canada, China and Dubai, in addition to a fantastic individual season that saw silver medals in Kazan and London. After competing in the 2016 Olympic Games and the 2017 World Championships, Couch made the decision to retire from the sport and focus on other pursuits. Following her retirement, Couch received a special recognition award at the British Diving Championships on 26 January 2018.
